Oh my GOSH!! That’s the reason!? 🤯 They need to figure out a middle ground, because they’re not allowing folks to prove what happened. Goodness gracious!
Same thing for me! When i got sent the completely wrong items and wanted to send photos/video as proof, the customer rep just said it was ok, they couldnt accept those because of potential malware/viruses/etc
I actually know why when stuff is stolen or missing Corporations/ Medium Size businesses usually have an insurance policy for the products that they sell. So when there's a loss, they usually just put on the books as a loss on their corporate tax. Also, if you're using a secured credit card this can also cover damages and losses of purchase items so you can report it to the credit card company and get your money back that way, but for the most part businesses will just refund you the money and that's pretty much most major e-commerce websites that do cross border as well. Usually it's in there terms and services but depends on the country and their policies.
Haha true! The express shipping option is a pretty good in between, though only free for larger orders (I think it’s $60 with stylekorean still, $80 for Jolse, and $99 for YesStyle?)
I've tried k-beauty cleansers from all the luxury brands designed more advanced ages and absolutely 100% they're far better for dry skin. I prefer the AmorePacific to the LG brands, but I won't even use lower end k-beauty second step cleansers (much prefer western) because every one has felt like a dud for my preferences. As far as the boxes... I doubt this is the issue here but on rare occasions the gift with purchase will come from sellers in a separate package. Usually there's a packaging slip in the box that helps clear up confusion, or your order will have 2 tracking numbers,. Here though my guess is someone got distracted while packing and the box ended up moving onto the next step. As far as Sephora not taking the video... I don't actually fault them for that under these circumstances and I'm not convinced it means they're unaware of the issue. If a refund is granted the company is going to track that b/c it's impacting their bottom line. That said there are a few issues with accepting media (though I'd always take videos if you see a damaged box or have another concern to ensure your protection). The first is that many people feel insulted if asked for verification of the issue so there's a customer satisfaction problem in even asking when the issue isn't valid. The second is that training CS reps to require/validate media is not only time consuming, but also relies sometimes a bit too heavily on common sense decision making vs. a by the book analysis. The third is that there are a series of technology issues from accepting files from storage capacities to potential malware. The final item is privacy concerns as regulations such as GDPR create a lot of backend compliance issues when sharing information that's nearly guaranteed to contain personal data. All this said, I bet most places have a work around if information is actually needed but I don't fault them for not having a process of accepting validation if they're quickly resolving the issue. Additionally I promise you they're gathering information about why refunds are being given and the amount of such refunds because it impacts their bottom line. All that said I totally understand the frustration when they're not willing to resolve the issue and I will not fight very hard before I just resolve the issue with my credit card company or if necessary a BBB complaint (it will shock you how fast BBB especially resolves things). As for Prime day.... too much. 2 kits from Isa Knox, Kit from Sooryehan, Moisturizer from Sooryehan, 2 Vegan Essences, Tirtir Ampule and a 3 pack from Oribe's Hair Alchemy set...
You know what, that is a good point. I actually did think about how if someone wanted to be shady, I suppose they could edit a video to look like the box was empty. So really it does come back around to this being the problem: honest people are telling the truth, shady people can certainly lie if they want to, and how does the company know the difference? Any favorite cleanser recs? ☺️
@@AliceintheRabbitHole I still have AmorePacific cleansing foam as my favorite second step Korean cleanser. The foam I liked from Sulwhasoo is being phased out... so I guess in order some remaining would be... O'Hui Age Recovery... Whoo Radiant Soft Foam Cleanser... O'Hui Miracle Moisture.... Su:m 37 Losec Summa... O'Hui First Geniture... Whoo Facial Foam Cleanser.. Sooryehen Bichaek... Donginbi Micro Cleansing Foam. Edit: Some non-eastern ones I'd rank probably above the O'Hui Age recovery are the Revive Foaming Cleanser, Jordan Samuels Cleanser and Allies of Skin (both types).
Just a note about sunscreen Alice. Quite some time ago, you mentioned the BEAUTY OF JOSEON - Ginseng Moist Sun Serum SPF50+ PA++++ Well, I finally got around to opening it and using it. OMG it's sooooo good! You were right, it's like another layer of skincare versus sunscreen. I love it! TYSM for all your recommendations ❤
I bought three skincare products in the Amazon Prime Day Sale. The price was better than Stylevana for the Dr. Ceuracle Vegan Kombucha Tea Essence and Vegan Kombucha Tea Gel Cream, so I purchased them for my daughter’s birthday. Yes, I did introduce her to products that are a little higher priced than some of the other Korean brands, but she’s in her twenties. The new Beauty of Joseon Glow Replenishing Rice Milk was $12.00 and I had been wanting to try it, so I put it in my cart and it will be here Thursday😊.
Hi Alice, love your advice. Please can you review what you use on your hair and your hair care routine, your hair is absolutely gorgeous. Many thanks. ❤
Oh wow thank you! I really think the trick is I decided to bleach it less 😅🤣 Meanwhile I still use Olaplex purple shampoo/conditioner and bond maintenance products (living proof most recently)
The final look is beautiful on you! I hadn't seen the Hur sunscreen before but adding to cart for my next yesstyle order for sure. Have a great weekend!
Ohhh I almost got that makeup brush I really want it! I got some shelving units to get all my ish organized. It's madness over here. I ALMOST caved and got the Booster Pro I'm still over here fighting with myself because the price is back down on the website😅 who REALLY knows, will I or won't I , I tend to just cave and purchase really quick before I can change my mind. Their new glutathione capsule cream is speaking to me as well😂😂 Medicube vs Me is always an interesting ONGOING battle😂 I recently got a MUCH NEEDED raise at work, I'm finally making what new grads are making just starting out with my 10 years of experience, so that's encouraging 🤨 anyway, it was going to be my celebration gift and then I decided to buy a new exercise bike. My husband is going to lose his mind when that arrives😂😂 I'm not supposed to be bringing ANYTHING in ONLY cleaning out. I'm VERY bad at this😂 Anyway, great video! You and your sweetie have been in my thoughts, sending you lots of 🫶🏼 and positive vibes your way!!
Oh NICE. I absolutely love getting organized!! It sounds overwhelming, then you start doing it, and next thing you know, it’s done and you know where everything is and it’s all pretty ✨ I’m so glad to hear you got that raise. I have a lot more thoughts on that whole pay situation, but I have a feeling we have the same perspective on it. Ridiculous what happened right around the Covid era, bah
Alice 💗 I have had MULTIPLE legitimate issues with my deliveries a few years back with Sephora. I took documentation and everything… And after the 3rd or 4th instance, Sephora DID put a freeze/flag my account and no longer allowed me to receive refunds or return my online purchases I spoke with a supervisor who told me it was just policy and there was nothing they could do. I had a missing item from my box, but since my account was flagged, they couldn’t do anything. After a year, it was lifted. From now on, I record everything 😅🙏🏻😭
I use that cushion too, I have the cat version and it's sooo cute. My only issue with it is that it clings to dry patches like no other! Other than thy, I honestly feel like it rivals most, if not all, western foundation
I actually got a couple of things on prime day since they were cheaper compared to everywhere else. For example, Benton guava toner pads were $13 ($22+ on yesstyle/stylevana), VT cosmetics PDRN essence was $19 ($32+ on yesstyle/stylevana), and Thank you farmer gel and cream was $18($26-28 on yesstyle/stylevana).
I have learned so much from your content. The way you explain things has helped me understand my skin and my skins needs so much more. We have a similar skin type. I was using products that were unknowingly irritating my skin. I just started using lipid gold and am already in love. Thank you so much for creating these videos!! It’s helped my skin so much!! Love your channel!!
They'll put peptides in anything, lol. The final look is nice. I was wondering why I didn't see a prime day video from you. That BK brush cat's paw brush does seem to be popular.
Hello Alice, if you are looking for a cleanser that is not stripping - try out the RNW Bubble Deep Cleanser :)! Never had a cleanser that is sooo foamy, almost like shaving cream and is not stripping at all. Have a nice weekend 😊!
I recommend Goodal vegan rice milk moisturizing sunscreen is the best physical sunscreen that I’ve used. Every chemical sunscreen burns my sensitive skin. I’m glad I found my holy grail spf. I don’t know why no one is talking about it.
It's very interesting to hear about differences between countries. I've never heard of banning from shopping! But we don't have those stores here either. I've had parcels delivered to the wrong postcode before and the PO saying they can't do anything?! Luckily the sender covered it but i felt bad as they weren't a huge company or anything. For ages I asked sellers to put my suburb in multiple times ( we have 3 suburbs with the same number)😂 I think I have ordered enough online that the posties know me now😊
It’s so wild to me how sometimes the post office just shrugs off their mistakes! We have an insurance option in the US, so USPS will pay out for those mistakes, at least!
5:41 I was a “late bloomer” with the face thinning. Funny to think of it like that. This spring I had a missing item from my Sephora order. You can show someone in store if you would like. They can make notes in your account.
Im so sorry for your customer service/mail issues! I hate to use Amazon for anything, but I will admit the peace of mind knowing that no matter what I can return/get my money back, etc. is so nice! I generally won’t buy makeup or skincare there though because of the counterfeit issues so it’s far from perfect lol I once had my birthday money stolen, where somebody opened the envelope, emptied the contents, taped it back up and put it in my mailbox… why they didn’t just throw the envelope out I will never know. LMAO Things like that with no recourse are beyond frustrating! I look forward to seeing how you like the newa! As I get older, I’m definitely looking for something to help with the jowel/under chin area! A lot of the issues I saw with people and fat loss definitely had to do with 1. them using it all over their face and 2. using completely unregulated devices. There are actually some reviews on UA-cam of these devices and they definitely get way hotter than they’re supposed to! Still better than the UA-cam videos about DIY fillers, etc. lol but scary nonetheless!
Oh my gosh I remember that era of DIY fillers. Then those creators complained about getting demonetized. Maybe don’t spread harmful information, gooooodness 👀 I can see that as a pro with Amazon. I don’t shop with them much, but I admit that fast shipping has been helpful for pet needs. They have such a wider selection than most pet stores (that carry a handful of reptile/amphibian supplies!)
Surprisingly I haven’t had any issues placing orders lately. Mostly with Amazon putting liquid products in mailers and not boxes, and then I open to exploded products because I live at a high altitude and things already pop open when they’re not damaged. Their CS is useless because they send a replacement with the same exact problem. They did ask for images with proof, but they never resolved the problem. I just got my $ back with the damaged product essentially for free. I don’t want to buy liquid products from Amazon anymore because of this.
Yup, it’s so bizarre when the same issue happens twice. I’ve noticed it with expired products in particular: they almost always reship…another expired product 🤦♀️
I haven't had much time for UA-cam lately, so I've been catching up on all your videos and I've missed you! You have such an infectious energy. For me, I refuse to order off of ulta's website anymore because at least one thing ALWAYS came broken.
I understand that! I feel like these companies can only disappoint us so many times before we move on to other businesses. And yet, it’s as though they don’t prioritize the s&h process. So bizarre.
I can't lie, I'm always nervous I'll have a package stolen or missing items, I've seen so many Reddit posts where Sephora left them hanging. Glad you got your refund!
Everything looks lovely on you ! I have been using the sooreyan black serum for over 6 months. I also started SK II at the same time, so not sure which one is helping my skin !! Since you asked😊 I got these items on prime day. They were priced lower than stylevanna & yesstyle. Tir tir red cushion foundation and Pyunkang Yul essence toner ($8.00 odd for 200ml !) Numbuzin #1 calming toner was also available for $12, but I put it off. I think the prices are still the same today. Julep cream to powder eyeshadow sticks were also available around $8.00. I use the matte ones for the no make-up look and also as a concealer !!
Ooh sk-ii and sooryehan!? I’m not surprised that your skin is pleased haha! Julep is still underrated. I don’t know why they’ve never quite received the buzz they deserve, but they do have some nice products!
I picked up the BK concealer brush for full price a week before the prime sale. 🤦🏻♀Fortunately, it’s a very nice brush even at full price. I bought the Benton Aloe mask pack and Dr. Ceuracle Kombucha Cream Essence for significantly less than what I’ve seen them sold for at Stylevanna and YesStyle. I agree that most of the k beauty sales were lackluster.
I’ve fallen in love with the BK Beauty X Nikki LaRose brush collection. I buy it on sale but shipping to Canada takes forever 2 weeks minimum. This brush collection was on the Prime days specials but I figure 3sets is enough 😂
I love all these yummy moisturizers I've been seeing, But I really Don't use them on a daily basis. After the moisture of the serums I use, I find that the moisture in my sunscreen seems like enough. Or if I use a moisturizer during the day, I really have to wait for it to dry down or putting a sunscreen on top too soon is just too much, too heavy.
@@sfkat yep sadly Aras allergies are too severe for us to keep a dog. 😔 But each of the moms took one of his dogs (as each mom already had one dog before adding a second). Thankfully no dogs had to go to a shelter, whew!
Hi Alice. I will like to try out the foaming cleanser from Sooyehan. I like the foaming cleanser that doesn't strip the skin.. 😊 I have never tried the radio frequency device and I am looking it up on the need for skin routine. The device seems easy to move around but I wonder how much it helps... My method of handling things also cause me to lose money due to carelessness.. 😂 My mop device is broken all too often and I try to search for excuse to get over the loss... The body of ginseng is likely more of the water content compared to the root version...
I got Annua toners and oil cleansers that were I think half off. I also got Clio mascaras and eyeliners that were half off. I wanted BOJ too but I had already spent by budget. The new honey mask was 12. I don’t see that price online.
O shit Sephora did it to you too 😂 girl u already know my issue I had in the fall sale an empty box with 1 sample then blacklisted after that over their stupidity. I just recently bought the Saro de rue x gothamista black ginsing essence and I'm really enjoying it . It's a thicker essence and frangance free and so far so good and I'm happy about that because it's like 68$
Oh whoa yeah it’s exactly what happened to you isn’t it 🤯 Seriously a terrible business move. Way to lose those customers who shop with them the most! Ooh thanks for sharing; that essence looks absolutely lovely!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole Yes it was a bad move because I spent alot of money every year im always rouge and if their was a tear higher i probably would be that and i havent hardly bought anything this year because who wants to spend money with that kind of treatment and who wants to take the risk of getting broken product and not being able to even send them back for a refund so i been shopping elsewhere for the most part O I bought a emril logasi convection air fry oven thing on prime day a nutribullet thing some supplements and some ankle cuffs for the gym cable machine o and FAB chafing stick for my husband 😂 nothing exciting. I almost bought the BK Angie concealer brush then I spaced and didn't get it in time I have a few brushes from BK that I like and I was gonna get the new It cosmetics cream blush I heard it was really nice and it has a ingredients list better then some serums it was 24$ instead of 34$ but I again somehow didn't end up with it in my order I thought I had it in my cart . It's in my Sephora cart too.
Hello! First of all thank you so much for your videos, love them so much, not only for my own choices of buying but also for relax ☺️ what happened to you with sephora also happened to me with Pat McGrath… I’m from Portugal and the delivery from them is a pain and a russian roulette, some orders come ok, some don’t came at all and when that happened for the first time they refund and I thought to myself if them would ever do anything to change the delivery horror system that they use but no…. My second delivery that I never received they answerd me thst it was not their problem and as it was my use not to receiv (as if it was my fault the mail problems and it was my second time) they done nothing … I will never buy from them again not only because I may never receive what I buy, but also because they decided to call their costumer lier and thief … great costumer support 😂
Wowww yeah it’s absurd! It seems like it’s a problem at the warehouses in some way, but it really shouldn’t be the customers problem at all! I hope these companies figure this out
I love your fashion sense. The top today is making your eyes pop! Also I feel your pain with shipping issues… especially with Sephora. They always forget to include the free samples! They give me 50 points every time they forget.
The same thing happened to me with Sephora. I ordered the plum plump moisturizer from glow recipe and picked out samples and some items with points. Everything was in the box except the moisturizer. I called and told them, and they sent it out, no picture, no problem.
I lost about 400 dollars from Dermstore on a Skinscuiticals bundle because they sent spoiled skincare and wouldn't refund or replace. They would approve, and then not refund or replace, which went on for months. I had been a long-time customer of the same products and they still wouldn't replace. Needless to say, I don't shop there anymore. Glad to hear the two of you are moving on with the curveball life has thrown. I'm sure it is a painful loss.
That is so disappointing to hear!! I’ll never understand the bad CS stories - no matter how much these companies put into their storefront and marketing, bad CS can make folks never shop a store again! Thank you 💕
I think you’re thinking of bucol fat removal- I just don’t think it should be a thing. I wish we could love ourselves more. I didn’t lose my baby fat till I was at least 30. I remember when I was 34 years old I played Shelby from steel magnolias on stage. I had baby fat on my face for the longest time. But Alice, I can blame stylevana. I have had such ongoing problems with them. Every other order I make seems to take months and months to get to me. Recently, I had an order pending for two months before I realized that it never arrived. I wrote them and they told me they could not find the order. I told them it was right there, pending in my orders and they said nope they had no order for me and we went around until I just, decided to let it sit there and ordered from Yesstyle instead. Sylvana has amazing prices, but I don’t know if I’ll ever order from them again I’ve had so many problems over the years.
One more thing Alice, I have probably made a dozen orders with style Vana over the years and they have never once taken your coupon code! I’ve tried to stack it every which way and I’ve never been able to get it to work. So I would end up just using their coupon. I tell you this only because it give you the credit for the purchases, even though you are the one who keyed me into Stylevana.
I went ahead and bought the Medicube booster Pro. It was supposed to arrive on Saturday and now they’re saying it will arrive sometime between July 24 and July 28. I have one order that should’ve come in today that says “ no details available.” I considered calling Amazon Customer Service about it today but I’m burned out on following up on these things at the moment. I was super busy from prime days and I’ll give it a couple days before I call.
I just can’t imagine it’s a common thing. I mean, maybe somewhere, but any surgeon that does buccal fat removal is not a good surgeon in my humblest of opinions 🙈 I feel like the catch with stylevana is they aren’t that predictable. Especially the “usually ships in 30 days” orders (that’s what got me initially in this stuck order, then part 2 of my problems completely didn’t involve stylevana at all). Where’d you order the booster pro from?
@@AliceintheRabbitHole I FINALLY got an e-mail from them telling me they "hadn't received payment!?!?" What? I had an order confirmation #, and my order was marked pending for about 3 weeks before I reached out to them. It took them two months of back and forth for them to tell me about the payment issue. UGH. I ordered the Medicube Booster Pro from Amazon during Prime Days. It said it was from the Medicube store, I hope that it's authentic. It was about $225. I thought that was a pretty good deal. I have your videos primed for helping me through initial use.
Thank you for talking about this Alice. I received an empty box instead of my order from Stylevana in May this year. I immediately contacted them and they replied that they would raise it with their courier. I haven't heard anything since despite me chasing them. I finally contacted my bank two weeks ago and they have provided me with a refund. Since then, Stylevana have removed me from their mailing lists, but I still haven't had any communication from them. I feel quite upset about it because I used to shop a lot with Stylevana. But did they just expect me to say that it was fine to receive an empty box instead of my order and move on?
I’m so sorry to hear!! Yeah I really don’t get it - these companies need to look into why this is going on. Seems as if something is up at their warehouses if you ask me!
I film myself opening all of my Ulta and Sephora boxes. I've had relatively few problems but they have so many issues for so many people that it just feels like the smart things to do. The only skincare I got was the Anua Heartleaf toner, which I hope I like because I accidentally bought two. I remember buying one and I woke up with a receipt for the second in my email. Insomnia shopping fail.
That’s smart!! Now we just have to figure out how to get video to them in case of an issue. Still, I figure it’s better to have that evidence than not!! Well, if it helps, I still got excited reading you’re getting that toner lol. It’s really special for inflammation prone skin imho!
Hello Alice, most of the mosturizers that I have ordered from Jolse are so light that I think the next moisturizer I order will be one designed for mature skin, because the last one I bought was Skin 1004, Probio-Cica enrich cream and My skin absorbs it very quickly in the intense cold weather here in Chile. I wanted to ask you how long a toner lasts when you make your own sheet masks? Another thing, I am very interested in ordering kojic acid serums from Nineless and the other brand that I am interested in trying is K secret, they have a retinal serum and a sunscreen that I find interesting because it has peptides and I have not seen anything similar in k-beuty. I would like to know which is your favorite musturizer from the brands for mature skin and what results have you seen? A big hug for you and Ara and I hope you are better 🥰
I was actually trying to figure out how long it lasts me as well! I need to measure rather than just pour lol, but my guess is I use somewhere between 5-10mL per compressed sheet mask Favorite is the Chogongjin Youngan Jin. It’s more of an occlusive feel as opposed to feeling like a hefty moisturizer (almost more like the Abib sleeping mask vs biossance omega cream), but it has more of a nourishing feel to it. It’s very different but very potent for deep moisturizing!
I am still waiting for my box I ordered last week ugh! I ordered DM concealer, sunscreen and hourglass new blush and son glow recipe. How frustrating for you.
Herbloom sunscreen was on a huge discount on Amazon for Prime Days, so I finally ordered it. It has a paper tube packaging! I have high hopes because their oil to foam cleaner is the best I've ever tried.
@@AliceintheRabbitHole Yup, it's such a cool brand that I haven't heard about anywhere. I ordered their cleanser totally randomly and was pleasantly surprised.
I've not heard of a lot of these brands other than of course round lab and clio, Sooryehan seems quite expensive though, are they similar to Sulawushoo? I'd like to try that alive lab mugwort toner and see how it compares to Im from. I recently got some haru haru and BoJ in the recent amazon prime day sale.
lol yes I'm a UA-camr too & I am shocked when I edit my videos as to how much I say totally the wrong word & I had no idea the I was shooting it. I mean sometimes I fluff my words & I know it when I'm shooting so I do that part again & edit it out, but these are totally under the radar mistakes in language that I thought I had said right
Honestly prime day seems like a scam to me, most of the so called "deals" were still about the same price for prime members after the sale anyways. I almost splurged on the red ginseng donginbi set, but decided on just getting their cleansing oil and the I'm From Mugwort toner to try for now. Do you still enjoy donginbi? Ive been on the fence for awhile regarding their essences and potency to give any results🤔
I still like donginbi for sure; however, I’ve discovered that there are quite a few nice ginseng based options (like sooryehan, which I didn’t know existed until recently!)
I ordered june 28 and just got my package today from stylevana. 😅 As for Sephora- I recently ordered forever makeup artist platelet and it came opened and had mold all over it😢. They sent me new one but the replacement was worst then the original one😂. This can be resolved if I just go into the store but I loathe stepping in their store--if you know what I mean.
Id say sooryehan is a bit more like…hmm. Like a Korean version of Murad? Tata Harper? (Not a perfect example but I’m trying haha!) So expected to be more pricey vs Purito, Axis-Y, etc, which are more like Neutrogena/Elf. Hope that helps explain the prices!
I forgot to say ( gym exhausted) I bought my stansout sponges for next year. I buy them each year at prime day for years, tirtir milky toner and restocked my d'Alba spray. Nothing exciting. Also most veterans have a pick up free to your place for donations.
I wanted to send a picture of broken product last year. They told me they couldn't send them because of fear of viruses. ❌️⭕️
Oh my GOSH!! That’s the reason!? 🤯
They need to figure out a middle ground, because they’re not allowing folks to prove what happened. Goodness gracious!
That is absolutely what they told me.@@AliceintheRabbitHole
Same thing for me! When i got sent the completely wrong items and wanted to send photos/video as proof, the customer rep just said it was ok, they couldnt accept those because of potential malware/viruses/etc
Oh wow. This is such a problem!! 😭
I was able to submit my picture proof via the chat in the app. Sounds like their reps aren't giving folks any options. But it can be done. Smh.
I actually know why when stuff is stolen or missing Corporations/ Medium Size businesses usually have an insurance policy for the products that they sell. So when there's a loss, they usually just put on the books as a loss on their corporate tax. Also, if you're using a secured credit card this can also cover damages and losses of purchase items so you can report it to the credit card company and get your money back that way, but for the most part businesses will just refund you the money and that's pretty much most major e-commerce websites that do cross border as well. Usually it's in there terms and services but depends on the country and their policies.
Oh that’s interesting. Makes sense too - so it’s a “let the insurance deal with it” situation. Thanks for sharing!
Just wanted to pop in and say that the Tir Tir Ceramic Ampoule is everything I had hoped Glossier Futuredew would be. The glow is amazing!!!
Glad you’re enjoying it!! Yeah that one is so glowy in a different way - impressive product!
I know usually Yesstyle and Stylevana is cheaper but it's hard to pass on Amazon's same day delivery on Prime day!
Haha true! The express shipping option is a pretty good in between, though only free for larger orders (I think it’s $60 with stylekorean still, $80 for Jolse, and $99 for YesStyle?)
I live in North Dakota and there is no such thing as same day delivery here for Prime members. Four days is the fastest I have seen.
I hear you! The amount of money I could have saved had I just been a little patient!

As for Prime day.... too much. 2 kits from Isa Knox, Kit from Sooryehan, Moisturizer from Sooryehan, 2 Vegan Essences, Tirtir Ampule and a 3 pack from Oribe's Hair Alchemy set...
You know what, that is a good point. I actually did think about how if someone wanted to be shady, I suppose they could edit a video to look like the box was empty. So really it does come back around to this being the problem: honest people are telling the truth, shady people can certainly lie if they want to, and how does the company know the difference?

I had some issues with Sephpra taking forever to ship orders, so I wonder if getting orders shipped to a store for pick up would be better?
Just a note about sunscreen Alice.
Quite some time ago, you mentioned the BEAUTY OF JOSEON - Ginseng Moist Sun Serum SPF50+ PA++++
Well, I finally got around to opening it and using it. OMG it's sooooo good! You were right, it's like another layer of skincare versus sunscreen. I love it! TYSM for all your recommendations ❤
So happy to hear you’re enjoying that one! It’s still one of my favs 😁
I love Sooreyan! I have been using the Black Serum line and it’s super nice❤the price on that set is very good.
I think I do have to get around to trying that line eventually!
I bought three skincare products in the Amazon Prime Day Sale. The price was better than Stylevana for the Dr. Ceuracle Vegan Kombucha Tea Essence and Vegan Kombucha Tea Gel Cream, so I purchased them for my daughter’s birthday. Yes, I did introduce her to products that are a little higher priced than some of the other Korean brands, but she’s in her twenties. The new Beauty of Joseon Glow Replenishing Rice Milk was $12.00 and I had been wanting to try it, so I put it in my cart and it will be here Thursday😊.
True but those Dr. C products are so worth it; hope you both enjoy the hauls! ☺️
It’s so funny to me that the brush is called kitten paw. I can’t imagine a kitten tapping on your concealer.
Haha!! Yeah there might be a bit more claws involved 🐈
Hi Alice, love your advice. Please can you review what you use on your hair and your hair care routine, your hair is absolutely gorgeous. Many thanks. ❤
Oh wow thank you! I really think the trick is I decided to bleach it less 😅🤣
Meanwhile I still use Olaplex purple shampoo/conditioner and bond maintenance products (living proof most recently)
Got the set after watching the video! Such a deal!! Never heard of the brand - excited🎉🎉🎉
The final look is beautiful on you! I hadn't seen the Hur sunscreen before but adding to cart for my next yesstyle order for sure. Have a great weekend!
Thank you! Yes oh my goodness, that sunscreen really speaks for itself doesn’t it 😱
I never shop at Amazon for personal reasons. I received an empty box from Ulta. It was my first CS complaint and got refunded no questions asked.
Glad to hear it was resolved quickly! And I don’t blame you at all for avoiding Amazon. I have mixed feelings about it to this very day
Oh great! I’ve been reading about ROUND LAB all summer . Sounds like an interesting line !? Thx ❤
I think it is! Definitely feels like it’s a dry skin friendly line too 😁
Both the Round Lab and Bon cream look like nice moisturizers! I caved and ordered the Black serum line from Soorheyan during prime. Thank you😊
I believe that’s their most popular line! It will probably be super nice; hope you enjoy ☺️
Ohhh I almost got that makeup brush I really want it! I got some shelving units to get all my ish organized. It's madness over here. I ALMOST caved and got the Booster Pro I'm still over here fighting with myself because the price is back down on the website😅 who REALLY knows, will I or won't I , I tend to just cave and purchase really quick before I can change my mind. Their new glutathione capsule cream is speaking to me as well😂😂 Medicube vs Me is always an interesting ONGOING battle😂 I recently got a MUCH NEEDED raise at work, I'm finally making what new grads are making just starting out with my 10 years of experience, so that's encouraging 🤨 anyway, it was going to be my celebration gift and then I decided to buy a new exercise bike. My husband is going to lose his mind when that arrives😂😂 I'm not supposed to be bringing ANYTHING in ONLY cleaning out. I'm VERY bad at this😂 Anyway, great video! You and your sweetie have been in my thoughts, sending you lots of 🫶🏼 and positive vibes your way!!
Oh NICE. I absolutely love getting organized!! It sounds overwhelming, then you start doing it, and next thing you know, it’s done and you know where everything is and it’s all pretty ✨
I’m so glad to hear you got that raise. I have a lot more thoughts on that whole pay situation, but I have a feeling we have the same perspective on it. Ridiculous what happened right around the Covid era, bah
Glad you were able to pick up our A506 brush during the sale and happy to hear you're enjoying it 😀
Alice 💗 I have had MULTIPLE legitimate issues with my deliveries a few years back with Sephora. I took documentation and everything…
And after the 3rd or 4th instance, Sephora DID put a freeze/flag my account and no longer allowed me to receive refunds or return my online purchases
I spoke with a supervisor who told me it was just policy and there was nothing they could do. I had a missing item from my box, but since my account was flagged, they couldn’t do anything.
After a year, it was lifted.
From now on, I record everything 😅🙏🏻😭
So after their mistakes, they froze your account!? I hate to hear that the horror stories are true! 😭
I use that cushion too, I have the cat version and it's sooo cute. My only issue with it is that it clings to dry patches like no other! Other than thy, I honestly feel like it rivals most, if not all, western foundation
Ooh good to know, thank you for sharing that. Sounds like it won’t be a go to for me in winter months!
I actually got a couple of things on prime day since they were cheaper compared to everywhere else. For example, Benton guava toner pads were $13 ($22+ on yesstyle/stylevana), VT cosmetics PDRN essence was $19 ($32+ on yesstyle/stylevana), and Thank you farmer gel and cream was $18($26-28 on yesstyle/stylevana).
Oh wow those are great finds! I suppose it might be the case of having to seek those great deals out (tbh that’s true with all the retailers lol)
So excited to listen to your story!!
I have learned so much from your content. The way you explain things has helped me understand my skin and my skins needs so much more. We have a similar skin type. I was using products that were unknowingly irritating my skin. I just started using lipid gold and am already in love. Thank you so much for creating these videos!! It’s helped my skin so much!! Love your channel!!
I’m so happy to hear!! 🥰
They'll put peptides in anything, lol. The final look is nice. I was wondering why I didn't see a prime day video from you. That BK brush cat's paw brush does seem to be popular.
It’s such a nice brush, oh my. I am extremely late to the game but I immediately understood it haha
Hello Alice, if you are looking for a cleanser that is not stripping - try out the RNW Bubble Deep Cleanser :)!
Never had a cleanser that is sooo foamy, almost like shaving cream and is not stripping at all.
Have a nice weekend 😊!
👀 and I love RNW too, just haven’t tried that cleanser. Thanks so much for the rec! ☺️
Totally agree about the Amazon prime deals... Somehow 30 percent off doesn't do it for me given the incredible discounts on Korean sites..
I recommend Goodal vegan rice milk moisturizing sunscreen is the best physical sunscreen that I’ve used. Every chemical sunscreen burns my sensitive skin. I’m glad I found my holy grail spf. I don’t know why no one is talking about it.
Thanks for sharing!!
It's very interesting to hear about differences between countries. I've never heard of banning from shopping! But we don't have those stores here either. I've had parcels delivered to the wrong postcode before and the PO saying they can't do anything?! Luckily the sender covered it but i felt bad as they weren't a huge company or anything. For ages I asked sellers to put my suburb in multiple times ( we have 3 suburbs with the same number)😂 I think I have ordered enough online that the posties know me now😊
It’s so wild to me how sometimes the post office just shrugs off their mistakes! We have an insurance option in the US, so USPS will pay out for those mistakes, at least!
5:41 I was a “late bloomer” with the face thinning. Funny to think of it like that. This spring I had a missing item from my Sephora order. You can show someone in store if you would like. They can make notes in your account.
That’s such a good idea to show someone in store!
10:26 I got to buy those compressed masks (I’ve seen them on Yes Style). Those I use are from Sensai and are very pricey.
Im so sorry for your customer service/mail issues! I hate to use Amazon for anything, but I will admit the peace of mind knowing that no matter what I can return/get my money back, etc. is so nice! I generally won’t buy makeup or skincare there though because of the counterfeit issues so it’s far from perfect lol
I once had my birthday money stolen, where somebody opened the envelope, emptied the contents, taped it back up and put it in my mailbox… why they didn’t just throw the envelope out I will never know. LMAO Things like that with no recourse are beyond frustrating!
I look forward to seeing how you like the newa! As I get older, I’m definitely looking for something to help with the jowel/under chin area!
A lot of the issues I saw with people and fat loss definitely had to do with 1. them using it all over their face and 2. using completely unregulated devices. There are actually some reviews on UA-cam of these devices and they definitely get way hotter than they’re supposed to! Still better than the UA-cam videos about DIY fillers, etc. lol but scary nonetheless!
Oh my gosh I remember that era of DIY fillers. Then those creators complained about getting demonetized. Maybe don’t spread harmful information, gooooodness 👀
I can see that as a pro with Amazon. I don’t shop with them much, but I admit that fast shipping has been helpful for pet needs. They have such a wider selection than most pet stores (that carry a handful of reptile/amphibian supplies!)
Surprisingly I haven’t had any issues placing orders lately. Mostly with Amazon putting liquid products in mailers and not boxes, and then I open to exploded products because I live at a high altitude and things already pop open when they’re not damaged. Their CS is useless because they send a replacement with the same exact problem. They did ask for images with proof, but they never resolved the problem. I just got my $ back with the damaged product essentially for free. I don’t want to buy liquid products from Amazon anymore because of this.
Yup, it’s so bizarre when the same issue happens twice. I’ve noticed it with expired products in particular: they almost always reship…another expired product 🤦♀️
I haven't had much time for UA-cam lately, so I've been catching up on all your videos and I've missed you! You have such an infectious energy.
For me, I refuse to order off of ulta's website anymore because at least one thing ALWAYS came broken.
I understand that! I feel like these companies can only disappoint us so many times before we move on to other businesses. And yet, it’s as though they don’t prioritize the s&h process. So bizarre.
I can't lie, I'm always nervous I'll have a package stolen or missing items, I've seen so many Reddit posts where Sephora left them hanging. Glad you got your refund!
The Sephora subreddit is so bad for my nerves 😅 the Ulta one might even be worse, as it’s so many people with stolen points!!
Everything looks lovely on you !
I have been using the sooreyan black serum for over 6 months. I also started SK II at the same time, so not sure which one is helping my skin !!
Since you asked😊 I got these items on prime day. They were priced lower than stylevanna & yesstyle. Tir tir red cushion foundation and Pyunkang Yul essence toner ($8.00 odd for 200ml !) Numbuzin #1 calming toner was also available for $12, but I put it off. I think the prices are still the same today.
Julep cream to powder eyeshadow sticks were also available around $8.00. I use the matte ones for the no make-up look and also as a concealer !!
Ooh sk-ii and sooryehan!? I’m not surprised that your skin is pleased haha!
Julep is still underrated. I don’t know why they’ve never quite received the buzz they deserve, but they do have some nice products!
Newa is a solid choice for radio frequency choice.
That was my conclusion after reading up more on the device. So excited to stick with it!
I picked up the BK concealer brush for full price a week before the prime sale. 🤦🏻♀Fortunately, it’s a very nice brush even at full price. I bought the Benton Aloe mask pack and Dr. Ceuracle Kombucha Cream Essence for significantly less than what I’ve seen them sold for at Stylevanna and YesStyle. I agree that most of the k beauty sales were lackluster.
There were some hidden gems for sure! And yep, it really is a nice brush. I see the hype on that one
I’ve fallen in love with the BK Beauty X Nikki LaRose brush collection. I buy it on sale but shipping to Canada takes forever 2 weeks minimum. This brush collection was on the Prime days specials but I figure 3sets is enough 😂
Just repurchased the House of Hur sunscreen. It’s stunning!
I can’t believe how good it is!
I love all these yummy moisturizers I've been seeing, But I really Don't use them on a daily basis. After the moisture
of the serums I use, I find that the moisture in my sunscreen seems like enough. Or if I use a moisturizer during the day, I
really have to wait for it to dry down or putting a sunscreen on top too soon is just too much, too heavy.
Mmhmm it’s so true - a lot of sunscreens are moisturizing enough! ☺️
@@sfkat yep sadly Aras allergies are too severe for us to keep a dog. 😔 But each of the moms took one of his dogs (as each mom already had one dog before adding a second). Thankfully no dogs had to go to a shelter, whew!
Hi Alice. I will like to try out the foaming cleanser from Sooyehan. I like the foaming cleanser that doesn't strip the skin.. 😊
I have never tried the radio frequency device and I am looking it up on the need for skin routine. The device seems easy to move around but I wonder how much it helps...
My method of handling things also cause me to lose money due to carelessness.. 😂 My mop device is broken all too often and I try to search for excuse to get over the loss...
The body of ginseng is likely more of the water content compared to the root version...
Yep I’m wondering the same thing! Will definitely follow up in several months, but I’m excited to see what happens ☺️
I got Annua toners and oil cleansers that were I think half off. I also got Clio mascaras and eyeliners that were half off. I wanted BOJ too but I had already spent by budget. The new honey mask was 12. I don’t see that price online.
Oh wow those are great deals!
I love your videos!! It always feels like talking with a friend!! The chaos of conversations is real😜
Many blessings!!!💖💖💖
Haha thank you! Have a most wonderful weekend ☺️💕
Hey Alice, I'm using the newa and it works fine with any ultrasound conductive gel.
That’s great to hear, thank you for sharing!!
O shit Sephora did it to you too 😂 girl u already know my issue I had in the fall sale an empty box with 1 sample then blacklisted after that over their stupidity.
I just recently bought the Saro de rue x gothamista black ginsing essence and I'm really enjoying it . It's a thicker essence and frangance free and so far so good and I'm happy about that because it's like 68$
Oh whoa yeah it’s exactly what happened to you isn’t it 🤯 Seriously a terrible business move. Way to lose those customers who shop with them the most!
Ooh thanks for sharing; that essence looks absolutely lovely!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole Yes it was a bad move because I spent alot of money every year im always rouge and if their was a tear higher i probably would be that and i havent hardly bought anything this year because who wants to spend money with that kind of treatment and who wants to take the risk of getting broken product and not being able to even send them back for a refund so i been shopping elsewhere for the most part
O I bought a emril logasi convection air fry oven thing on prime day a nutribullet thing some supplements and some ankle cuffs for the gym cable machine o and FAB chafing stick for my husband 😂 nothing exciting. I almost bought the BK Angie concealer brush then I spaced and didn't get it in time I have a few brushes from BK that I like and I was gonna get the new It cosmetics cream blush I heard it was really nice and it has a ingredients list better then some serums it was 24$ instead of 34$ but I again somehow didn't end up with it in my order I thought I had it in my cart . It's in my Sephora cart too.
Hello! First of all thank you so much for your videos, love them so much, not only for my own choices of buying but also for relax ☺️ what happened to you with sephora also happened to me with Pat McGrath… I’m from Portugal and the delivery from them is a pain and a russian roulette, some orders come ok, some don’t came at all and when that happened for the first time they refund and I thought to myself if them would ever do anything to change the delivery horror system that they use but no…. My second delivery that I never received they answerd me thst it was not their problem and as it was my use not to receiv (as if it was my fault the mail problems and it was my second time) they done nothing … I will never buy from them again not only because I may never receive what I buy, but also because they decided to call their costumer lier and thief … great costumer support 😂
Wowww yeah it’s absurd! It seems like it’s a problem at the warehouses in some way, but it really shouldn’t be the customers problem at all! I hope these companies figure this out
I love your fashion sense. The top today is making your eyes pop! Also I feel your pain with shipping issues… especially with Sephora. They always forget to include the free samples! They give me 50 points every time they forget.
They always forget the samples!! 😩
Thank you ☺️
The same thing happened to me with Sephora. I ordered the plum plump moisturizer from glow recipe and picked out samples and some items with points. Everything was in the box except the moisturizer. I called and told them, and they sent it out, no picture, no problem.
Glad it was resolved quickly!!
I lost about 400 dollars from Dermstore on a Skinscuiticals bundle because they sent spoiled skincare and wouldn't refund or replace. They would approve, and then not refund or replace, which went on for months. I had been a long-time customer of the same products and they still wouldn't replace. Needless to say, I don't shop there anymore.
Glad to hear the two of you are moving on with the curveball life has thrown. I'm sure it is a painful loss.
That is so disappointing to hear!! I’ll never understand the bad CS stories - no matter how much these companies put into their storefront and marketing, bad CS can make folks never shop a store again!
Thank you 💕
Maybe Sephora thought you had a cat. They love a box with a toy in it! ❤
Right, they shipped the best part - the box. Who needs the items inside!? 🐈
Hi Alice. ❤ Happy Friday
Happy Friday!
I think you’re thinking of bucol fat removal- I just don’t think it should be a thing. I wish we could love ourselves more. I didn’t lose my baby fat till I was at least 30. I remember when I was 34 years old I played Shelby from steel magnolias on stage. I had baby fat on my face for the longest time.
But Alice, I can blame stylevana. I have had such ongoing problems with them. Every other order I make seems to take months and months to get to me. Recently, I had an order pending for two months before I realized that it never arrived. I wrote them and they told me they could not find the order. I told them it was right there, pending in my orders and they said nope they had no order for me and we went around until I just, decided to let it sit there and ordered from Yesstyle instead. Sylvana has amazing prices, but I don’t know if I’ll ever order from them again I’ve had so many problems over the years.
One more thing Alice, I have probably made a dozen orders with style Vana over the years and they have never once taken your coupon code! I’ve tried to stack it every which way and I’ve never been able to get it to work. So I would end up just using their coupon. I tell you this only because it give you the credit for the purchases, even though you are the one who keyed me into Stylevana.
I went ahead and bought the Medicube booster Pro. It was supposed to arrive on Saturday and now they’re saying it will arrive sometime between July 24 and July 28. I have one order that should’ve come in today that says “ no details available.” I considered calling Amazon Customer Service about it today but I’m burned out on following up on these things at the moment. I was super busy from prime days and I’ll give it a couple days before I call.
I just can’t imagine it’s a common thing. I mean, maybe somewhere, but any surgeon that does buccal fat removal is not a good surgeon in my humblest of opinions 🙈
I feel like the catch with stylevana is they aren’t that predictable. Especially the “usually ships in 30 days” orders (that’s what got me initially in this stuck order, then part 2 of my problems completely didn’t involve stylevana at all).
Where’d you order the booster pro from?
@@AliceintheRabbitHole I FINALLY got an e-mail from them telling me they "hadn't received payment!?!?" What? I had an order confirmation #, and my order was marked pending for about 3 weeks before I reached out to them. It took them two months of back and forth for them to tell me about the payment issue. UGH. I ordered the Medicube Booster Pro from Amazon during Prime Days. It said it was from the Medicube store, I hope that it's authentic. It was about $225. I thought that was a pretty good deal. I have your videos primed for helping me through initial use.
Thank you for talking about this Alice. I received an empty box instead of my order from Stylevana in May this year. I immediately contacted them and they replied that they would raise it with their courier. I haven't heard anything since despite me chasing them. I finally contacted my bank two weeks ago and they have provided me with a refund. Since then, Stylevana have removed me from their mailing lists, but I still haven't had any communication from them. I feel quite upset about it because I used to shop a lot with Stylevana. But did they just expect me to say that it was fine to receive an empty box instead of my order and move on?
I’m so sorry to hear!! Yeah I really don’t get it - these companies need to look into why this is going on. Seems as if something is up at their warehouses if you ask me!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole Thanks for replying Alice. I love your videos by the way
I film myself opening all of my Ulta and Sephora boxes. I've had relatively few problems but they have so many issues for so many people that it just feels like the smart things to do.
The only skincare I got was the Anua Heartleaf toner, which I hope I like because I accidentally bought two. I remember buying one and I woke up with a receipt for the second in my email. Insomnia shopping fail.
That’s smart!! Now we just have to figure out how to get video to them in case of an issue. Still, I figure it’s better to have that evidence than not!!
Well, if it helps, I still got excited reading you’re getting that toner lol. It’s really special for inflammation prone skin imho!
I have been looking at the RL Soybean bits but the reviews were meh. Alice has saved me again!!!
I have had damage during delivery but I have never had a theft. So I have try the Sooyashan
Speaking of Sooryehan, I really believe you’ll fall in love with their Black line.
Hello Alice, most of the mosturizers that I have ordered from Jolse are so light that I think the next moisturizer I order will be one designed for mature skin, because the last one I bought was Skin 1004, Probio-Cica enrich cream and My skin absorbs it very quickly in the intense cold weather here in Chile. I wanted to ask you how long a toner lasts when you make your own sheet masks? Another thing, I am very interested in ordering kojic acid serums from Nineless and the other brand that I am interested in trying is K secret, they have a retinal serum and a sunscreen that I find interesting because it has peptides and I have not seen anything similar in k-beuty. I would like to know which is your favorite musturizer from the brands for mature skin and what results have you seen? A big hug for you and Ara and I hope you are better 🥰
I was actually trying to figure out how long it lasts me as well! I need to measure rather than just pour lol, but my guess is I use somewhere between 5-10mL per compressed sheet mask
Favorite is the Chogongjin Youngan Jin. It’s more of an occlusive feel as opposed to feeling like a hefty moisturizer (almost more like the Abib sleeping mask vs biossance omega cream), but it has more of a nourishing feel to it. It’s very different but very potent for deep moisturizing!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole Thank you very much Alice 🌷
I am still waiting for my box I ordered last week ugh! I ordered DM concealer, sunscreen and hourglass new blush and son glow recipe. How frustrating for you.
Ooh I’m so curious about that new blush! Not that I need any more blush at all 😅🤣
Same, curiosity got the better of me. The new Rare beauty powder and Fenty lipstick and liners are going well too. Bought in store yesterday
Hi Alice. Happy Friday ❌️ ⭕️
Happy Friday! 🥰
Herbloom sunscreen was on a huge discount on Amazon for Prime Days, so I finally ordered it. It has a paper tube packaging!
I have high hopes because their oil to foam cleaner is the best I've ever tried.
A paper tube!? Oh that’s so much better for the environment!!
@@AliceintheRabbitHole Yup, it's such a cool brand that I haven't heard about anywhere. I ordered their cleanser totally randomly and was pleasantly surprised.
I've not heard of a lot of these brands other than of course round lab and clio, Sooryehan seems quite expensive though, are they similar to Sulawushoo? I'd like to try that alive lab mugwort toner and see how it compares to Im from.
I recently got some haru haru and BoJ in the recent amazon prime day sale.
I was so surprised to see the prices of sooryehan elsewhere, but they are much more affordable on YesStyle/stylevana!
Hi Alice. Great video! Do you use filters on your videos?
Nope! Seems it would be odd to use filters on skincare (and/or makeup) content 👀
lol yes I'm a UA-camr too & I am shocked when I edit my videos as to how much I say totally the wrong word & I had no idea the I was shooting it. I mean sometimes I fluff my words & I know it when I'm shooting so I do that part again & edit it out, but these are totally under the radar mistakes in language that I thought I had said right
Right!? I’ve sat at my editor just SHOCKED!
Honestly prime day seems like a scam to me, most of the so called "deals" were still about the same price for prime members after the sale anyways. I almost splurged on the red ginseng donginbi set, but decided on just getting their cleansing oil and the I'm From Mugwort toner to try for now. Do you still enjoy donginbi? Ive been on the fence for awhile regarding their essences and potency to give any results🤔
I agree some were very average sake prices.
I still like donginbi for sure; however, I’ve discovered that there are quite a few nice ginseng based options (like sooryehan, which I didn’t know existed until recently!)
I ordered june 28 and just got my package today from stylevana. 😅
As for Sephora- I recently ordered forever makeup artist platelet and it came opened and had mold all over it😢. They sent me new one but the replacement was worst then the original one😂. This can be resolved if I just go into the store but I loathe stepping in their store--if you know what I mean.
Oh nooo. Hope you can get it resolved quickly!!
Don't mind me, just commenting for the algorithm
The shipping company should have the box’s weight
Oh that’s a good point!!!
Even korean skin care is getting expensive.....sshheesshh
Id say sooryehan is a bit more like…hmm. Like a Korean version of Murad? Tata Harper? (Not a perfect example but I’m trying haha!) So expected to be more pricey vs Purito, Axis-Y, etc, which are more like Neutrogena/Elf. Hope that helps explain the prices!
I forgot to say ( gym exhausted) I bought my stansout sponges for next year. I buy them each year at prime day for years, tirtir milky toner and restocked my d'Alba spray. Nothing exciting. Also most veterans have a pick up free to your place for donations.
It’s nice to get the basics at a discount though! Veterans?
@@AliceintheRabbitHoleyes, veterans charities. I have done it for California and Oregon.
@@AliceintheRabbitHoleI messaged you link for Veterans pick up.
🐰
You look beautiful. Have a wonderful weekend ❌️ ⭕️
Thank you! Hope you have a great weekend too ☺️
